The Abandoned Husband Dominates - Chapter 1364

1364 The Howard Family’s Disappointment!

Brad laughed out loud. “Hahaha, my sister is actually a goddess who has cultivated in another world for more than 200 years! Does that mean that I can also become a cultivator?

“Dad, Mom, let’s go with Sis to her world to cultivate! It’s too boring to be an ordinary person on Earth. You only have a hundred years to live, and you’ll be old after dozens of years. You might be able to live forever in the alternate world! Moreover, you can fly over roofs and walk on walls. All kinds of cultivation magic are much more interesting than staying on Earth!”

Brad was relatively young. In addition, he was also a soldier and a martial artist. He yearned and looked forward to cultivating on foreign planets.

However, Marissa reminded him cautiously, “Son, don’t think so highly of this alien planet. We haven’t been there before. Who knows what it is like there! You still have to ask your sister what level her strength is in the other world and what her family status is like. If her status is the same as ours in the capital, you can consider going over.

“Moreover, what if she’s the worst in the cultivation world and any one of them is better than her? If she can’t protect us even if we go there, then we can’t go.”

The older generation preferred a secure life, especially people like them, who were used to power and influence. They would feel very insecure in unfamiliar and insecure places.

Brad laughed out loud. “Mom, don’t worry. To be able to come to Earth from another planet for a mission, she’s definitely not an ordinary person. Just like how those who can travel abroad are the richest people in the country. I bet that Sis is one of the top experts in that cultivation world, right, Jordan?”

Jordan said, “I’m not sure. However, I know that Lauren won’t take anyone from the Howards away.”

Upon hearing that, Brad became angry. “Jordan, what do you mean? My sister is family. She lived in the Howards for more than twenty years. If she wants to leave, why can’t she bring me along?”

Marissa added, “Jordan, is it because you don’t want to bring us along? You can’t be so selfish. Do you only want to bring the people from the Steeles and not us? That won’t do. Your abilities were given to you by Lauren. It’s not up to you to decide. We have to follow my daughter to the alternate world to cultivate!”

Stefan rolled his eyes at Marissa. “How old are you? Why do you still want to cultivate? Besides, Lauren didn’t say that her world is a cultivation world. Jordan is not a selfish person. Listen to what he has to say.”

Jordan nodded at Stefan. He was a more rational person. Jordan explained, “Lauren won’t bring you to the alternate world. These are her words. She said that being a member of the Howards and your daughter was her choice back then. She has parents in the alternate world and won’t treat you as real parents.

“Of course, she’s still sentimental. She said that after living in the Howard family for more than 20 years, she’ll give you some benefits before she leaves.”

Marissa was a little angry and became agitated. “How can Lauren be like this? I raised her back then. Have I not worried about her all these years? I don’t care which planet she’s from. She’s my daughter! How can this child just leave us…”

At the end, Marissa felt a lump in her throat and tears welled up in her eyes.

The daughter she had raised for so many years suddenly wanted to leave her. She even said that she was not her daughter. No mother could stand this.

When Jordan saw this scene, he initially thought that it would be a little heartless of Lauren not to take the Howards away. Now, he understood why she did this.

The Howards treated Lauren too well. Stefan and Marissa treated her as their daughter, and Brad treated her as his sister. But in fact, to the current Lauren, Stefan, Marissa, and Brad were not her family.

Twenty years of being a mortal for an alien was like an actor who had been filming for a few months. In the drama, she had her parents and brother, but after filming, she had to return to her life. She could not treat her parents in the drama as real parents.

It didn’t matter if they were just friends. If they were good friends in the movie, they could also develop into good friends in reality.

This was why Lauren was willing to take care of Victoria and not the Howards and Jordan.

It was only at this moment that Jordan came to a realization. However, Martin immediately understood what Lauren meant.

Martin sighed and said, “Alright, stop crying. Lauren is not heartless, nor has she forgotten how well our Howards treat her. She just doesn’t know how to face us. Is she really going to acknowledge us as family? She already has a family in the alternate world. What will we say when we go there and see her real grandfather, parents, siblings as mortals?

“If she’s really someone with a very high status over there, as Earthlings from a low-level civilization, wouldn’t it be embarrassing for us to be her grandfather and parents over there?”

Jordan looked at Martin and nodded. “Mr. Howard is right. I also think that Lauren is not a heartless person. She still has you in her heart, but she doesn’t seem to know how to face the current situation.”

Stefan’s eyes were also filled with tears as he walked toward Jordan and said, “Jordan, we can’t go to the Alternate World. As a father, I no longer have the right to protect my daughter. From now on, Lauren will be completely in your hands. Although she’s far stronger than you, you have to care for her and protect her as much as possible. Can you do that?”

Jordan said, “I’m sorry. I can’t do it.”

Jordan’s words made the Howards very unhappy.

Brad said, “Jordan, are you still a man? Shouldn’t you be protecting your wife? We know that you’re not capable, but you can cultivate slowly. How can a man’s cultivation path not be better than a woman’s? Don’t you even have this bit of confidence?”

Jordan said, “I want to go to the alternate world to protect Lauren too, but she refused to bring me along.”

Everyone in the Howards was shocked. “What? Lauren doesn’t even want to bring you along?”

The Howards never expected Lauren to not even bring her beloved Jordan along. Lauren had already given birth to a child for Jordan.

Marissa said, “Why is Lauren like this? She doesn’t even want to acknowledge her parents or her husband. What about Chloe? What about her newborn child? Will she not acknowledge them either?”

“Chloe will be taken away. Our other baby was not born successfully…”

Jordan decided not to tell them that Lauren had personally aborted the baby.
